J-Archives and Museums in Africa

This is an excellent website which seeks to detail holdings of various archival
and research institutions in Africa. It occasionally provides contact
information, which can be particularly invaluable. For most archives in
Africa, as for smaller museums and research holdings in Britain,
developing a rapport with an archivist, librarian or scholar is
critical.

The Kenya National Archives.
This is a very accessible and well-organised archive, though you'll
have to be a little patient with document delivery (and occasionally
documents will be missing). It's worth getting on good terms with the
very helpful staff. Power outages are very infrequent.
